HELPFUL HINTS FOR TENT SET UP

• Our tents are easy to set up but we suggest you practice once at home before using them for the first time to avoid late night bickering with tent mates while fumbling around in the dark.
• Before pitching tent, clear campsite of debris that may pierce tent floor.
  • We recommend staking out all corners, vestibules and guylines to increase space and keep your tent from becoming a tumbleweed.
• Hang onto your stuff sacks or they'll blow away and create backcountry litter.
• Pull on the pole sleeve fabric when inserting poles to avoid any bunching in the material.
• Push rather than pull poles through pole sleeves.

TENT CARE

Storage

Always make sure your tent is dry and free of debris before storing. Fold and roll your tent a different way each time to avoid permanent creases. Store in a cool, dry place. Never leave your tent in hot temperatures (such as a car trunk or attic space), as it will damage the material coatings. Storing your tent damp can result in mildew growth, which may cause your tent to smell, leak or delaminate. Mildew damage is not covered under warranty.

Cleaning

For light cleaning, you can sponge the tent with warm water. If it's necessary to wash the entire tent, always use cleaners recommended specifically for tents. We recommend McNett Mirazyme cleaner, or Nikwax Tech Wash. Do not dry clean or machine-wash your tent. Detergents and dry cleaning solvents will damage the fabric and ruin waterproofing. Never use hot water, bleach, liquid detergents or dishwashing liquids.

Seam Sealing

Seam tape alone is durable enough to prevent water leakage. Any seams that have been taped do not need to be seam sealed with a liquid sealer unless you want extra protection. Make sure the seam-sealer is completely dry before re-packing your tent. Damage caused by misapplication may void warranty.

Zippers

Keeping your zippers clean will help keep the coils and sliders from wearing out. If filled with dirt, vacuum or brush zippers before storing tent. We recommend McNett Zip Care.

Repairs and Warranty

All Big Agnes tents are guaranteed against manufacturing or material defect. We do not warranty products damaged from normal wear and tear, alteration made by owner, misuse, accidents or damages caused by uses other than intended. Damage due to misuse, normal wear and tear, or improper care may be repaired, at the discretion of Big Agnes, at a reasonable charge. Tents returned for repair must be clean and free of debris.
